MAGGIE
GOLDEN RETRIEVER

 

Maggie For the past month I have been helping the Scotsburn Primary School children train a Golden Retriever puppy called Maggie.

Richard, the Principal, received permission from the Education Department to bring Maggie to the school when she was 8 weeks old; she belongs to Richard and his family. Scotsburn Primary School has 25 students and they have had the day to day care and training of Maggie.

I attended the school every Tuesday for one hour and Maggie has now successfully completed and graduated puppy preschool. I presented Richard and the children with a graduation certificate and will continue to visit the school once a month until the puppy is six months old.

For me personally this was a very rewarding experience and I was made very welcome by Richard and the school; they were just beautiful children, a credit to their school.
